I\u2019ve only gone and bloody done it! I realise we\u2019ve got the whole month but Metritron has had a lot of work poured into it since the Molyjam 2013<\/a> that spawned it. However, the October Challenge has definitely been the push I needed to get it out the door and it\u2019s previous incarnation MetritronST did lose a lot of momentum<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As you can tell from the above animated gif, which I managed to not include the mouse pointer in this time<\/a>, it\u2019s an arena shooter where you shoot things in an arena\u2026 using either mouse + keyboard or a 360 pad. If you\u2019ve played the Molyjam version \u2013 which you haven\u2019t; I would assume you\u2019ll appreciate my moving away from Robotron controls and more of a PC focus.<\/p>\n

It has forty stages made up of 6\/12\/20 waves depending how deep you are into the game and 20+ enemy types \u2013 all of which can be upgraded into boss versions as well as having some unique bosses as well. Difficulty wise it starts of easy but assumes you know how to spin around in a circle firing at stuff. If you like this kind of thing then it\u2019s neat.<\/em><\/p>\n

Oh yeah, it\u2019s pay-what-you-like (including nothing) here:\u00a0http:\/\/tayl1r.itch.io\/metritronhf<\/a><\/p>","time":"October 3rd, 2013 12:24 pm","title":"MetritronHF Release","title_was_empty":false}
